El Pelon

Why?Everything old is new again.

Taco-heads were thrilled to see the second location of this venerable taco standout open in Brighton after the old Fenway area location burned down, but now the original is back in operation after a lengthy absence. That just makes it easier for us to load up on their fish tacos made with crispy, spiced cod, arbol chile mayo, limed onions, pickled cabbage, and cucumbers; or a carne asada torta on a toasted roll with refried beans, limed onions, lettuce, salsa, spicy mayo and guacamole. "Fresh ingredients smuggled in daily," they used to say. We plan on smuggling a few of these into our face.
